i completely agree with governor jindal. i don't think it represents the republican party, and i think it's a man who lost an election and is trying to find an excuse of why he lost it, and it's not looking in the mirror and figuring out that maybe he had flaws as a candidate that maybe he didn't run as good a campaign as president obama did, but, you know, it is very dismissive and condee sending of entire blocks of people in this country. latinos, african-americans, young people. i mean, it's just offensive. >> there's some people who stay, you know, maybe the problem was the tone here, but that fundamentally the message was accurate. i want to you hear what columnist will caine said earlier on cnn. >> with regards to young people, for instance, the forgiveness of college loan interest was a big gift. free contraceptives were a very big thing with young college age women, and obama care made a big difference for them because, you know, anybody now 26 of age or younger is going to be part of their parent's plan. now, listen
